Marco maybe gone but he will never be forgotten,his style of racing is really missed just as much as himself is this year and for years to come..That Repsol factory bike had his name all over it if he was still here- R.I.P Marco x x

I thought you were a bit of a danger in your first year Marco, and you made me frown. But you won me over and I began to see a fearless rider maturing and becoming wiser. I took up your number and started to defend you from your detractors, you made me smile... Then I watched you lose your young life in front of my eyes. You left a gap that will never be filled, but you may have inspired some to try.

I was fortunate enough to meet Marco on the morning of the Sepang 2011 race when he took the time to stop for a photo and autograph - a true gent as well as an amazing talent. That photo of myself and Marco is now very treasured. RIP #58
